Abstract

Improved techniques of running multitenant applications involve opening sockets in multiple network namespaces through which respective tenants may access a monolithic application thread. A server running such an application may assign tenants network bandwidth through one or more network namespaces. Each network namespace has its own independent set of network addresses that may overlap or even be identical to another namespace's set of network addresses. The server may then identify a request to access application data with a particular tenant by network identifiers such as virtual local area network (VLAN) identifiers attached to the request. Thus, even though two established sockets may include identical source and destination addresses, data may be exchanged between the server and the intended tenants.
